So, as I always say, I will take "just one bloom" any time! This was gift from Kevin, I got it in summer, and did not even expect it to bloom any time soon, was actually getting it slowly ready for the winter rest, but last week I saw one tiny red dot, and got really excited, and it actually did open today:-) It is mounted on tree fern, full afternoon sun:-)

Thanks Hector, Dendros are probably my favorite ones, and Bulbos. I got really huge collection of Dendros this year, so I can't wait for them to bloom for me:-) There are some awesome mini dendros that you should for sure check for you vivarium!

Yeah, for some reason the name faciferum reminds me world "luciferum", therefor something from the "hell", and the color is gorgeous red, like hell's fire:-)))))

Oh so pretty! Is this a miniature, or just a young plant? I have a hard time telling in photos.

I like the red-orange color and the form....it might give you more flowers so don't give up....after the flowers are gone then you may give it rest.

Many thanks Bud, I am not giving up at all, I am more excited, I did not expect any bloom till next year after the rest, so this is nice mini tiny bonus:-)

RandomGemini, this is a division I received from Kevin in summer. It is not big, but when I did google, they can grow pretty decent size, definitely not miniature, but the one I have is not huge yet:-) The bloom is definitely definitely small now, but if it will grow, than the blooms will get bigger also:-)
